Territories usually did not keep it's independence after a country annexed it. A perfect example would be the territories gained by the United States during the late 1800's and early 1900's. An example of a territory annexed by the US was Hawaii. This became a US territory and from there, created a government and laws similar to those of the other US states at the time. Eventually, this lead to Hawaii becoming a US state.
Another example is Puerto Rico. Even though Puerto Rico runs their own elections, their system of government was set up by the United States. The laws created in Puerto Rico were heavily influenced by the US. Based on these examples, you can see that annexed territories did not really keep their independence. Rather, they began to create political and social structures that were similar to the countries that annexed them.
Ended the party--in the War of 1812, the northern Federalists lost trade with Great Britain.
Federalists believed the US must become an industrial country not a farming country. The Hartford Convention was a discussion of New England states leaving the Union. When the war ended, they no longer needed to leave because they could trade with Great Britain again and the country now were united in creating an industrial country with a national banking system. The Federalist party disappears and the US is a one party country until the 1828 election.
It was whether the states had really left the USA or not. Hope it helps!
In general, people in Europe were a bit ahead of the curve in opposing slavery compared to Americans.
Generally they were still racist and imperialist, but at least they'd abolished slavery already in their countries. Even Russia.
